What is a Fine Art School Portrait? A Fine Art School Portrait is an authentic and timeless photograph of the child. No forced smiles, no distracting backgrounds, just genuine personality.

What services do you provide? - I provide a personal and streamlined portrait day event for the school. I provide email correspondence for the school to send out to families both before and after Portrait day. I handle all parent questions directly. Parents order packages/prints/products from an online gallery so the school does not have to handle any money. Each gallery will contain a minimum of 3-5 images of each student, both in color and black & white. Schools choose to have prints delivered to the school or delivered directly to the parents. I provide all necessary staff and equipment on Portrait days. The atmosphere on School Portrait Day(s) is light and relaxed, allowing the student to have fun and bring out their personality. I take photos of the staff as well and provide 1 free digital download of each staff member as well as discounted packages for their children's photos. I provide the school with a complete gallery of high-resolution images to use for yearbook, advertising, and website. I also offer both class photos or composite photos.

What do you charge? Desertbloom Photography Fine Art Portraits services are free to schools. My portrait packages, prints, and digital files are priced competitively as I encourage my families to print their photos. I also offer items such as school I.D.s, canvas portraits, coffee mugs, key chains, etc. I donate a minimum of 10% of my profits to the school as a donation. The school may choose to use the Fine Art School Portraits as a fundraiser event.

How many students can you accommodate? I work with schools with as little as a dozen students to schools with over 1000.

What if we want something different? - I am willing to work with your school to design a custom portrait day (or days) and packages for your families. I am also available to photograph weekday events throughout the year, such as pep rallies and promotion ceremonies. I photograph senior classes for yearbook photos and graduation announcements. In addition, I provide a head shot program to school theater programs, dance programs, etc.

We want your services but our school isn't located in the Las Vegas Valley. - Fortunately for you, I love to travel! I service the western United States, as well as Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York. Contact me regardless where you are, let's see what we can work out together!

Homeschool groups - I've been a homeschooling mom since April 2007. I work the same way with homeschool groups and donate a minimum of 10% of my profits to your group!

In a nutshell… - Here are the reasons you’d want to hire Desertbloom Photography as your school portrait photographer!

- I offer timeless images with simple backgrounds, so the focus is on the child.

- I prioritize drawing out authentic emotion and genuine personality.

- I capture variety and give the parents the choice of which images they want.

- I offer the same products (School I.D’s, PSPA's, etc.) as the ‘big’ companies.

- I simplify the process for the school staff because everything, including money, can be handled online.

- I donate a minimum of 10% of my profit to YOUR school.
